Rusty Pelican is our go-to weekend brunch spot! While there's often a wait (which is to be expected for such a popular place), it's worth it for their delicious fare. The plates are beautifully presented and definitely Instagram-worthy. However, some dishes could use a slight flavor boost to match the impressive visuals. But the friendly, attentive staff more than makes up for it - they're amazing about keeping coffees topped up and assisting with any needs. The lively atmosphere adds to the fun brunch vibe too. Sure, it's not the most mind-blowing cuisine, but Rusty Pelican reliably delivers a tasty, entertaining brunch experience. Just be prepared for a potential wait during peak hours.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
